I get on average around 450-500 miles till reserve without driving particularly economically, I was disappointed too coming from a PD engine as these CR's need to be driven differently to get the best out of them, unlike the PD's where you could just chug along all day without seeing under 55mpg!

ahh right....i think i get about 450-480 to a tank.....i do motorway mileage mostly...including the odd top speed blast lol and excited drving to feel the pull..
No not too bad, especially considering its been remapped, We do 40 mway miles a day in this most of the time at 90 and then about 15 miles a day pottering around town! I got an average 56.3mpg from her when going up to Scotland (230 miles) and I was doing 100+ most of the way there, 4 adults and boot full with luggage so I suppose it's not too disappointing.

I have no idea what im getting average as the bloody thing doesnt have a on board computer -.-
Money! Same reason the 9N and 9N3's had rubber in the storage compartments and better supporting seats! VW is going a bit astray from what they are supposed to be, that's coming from a 17 year old. Although I have been brought up around VW/Audis all my life!

Try eddie-gt/eddie-nl for the retro fits he's highly regarded on the Mk5golfgti forum, I thinking of doing an R-Line special on mine so I can cover the sill dent with sill covers haha but I don't really like the look of them, wanna do something like an SEL look instead.

I should say that I don't ever fill up to the brim, 3/4 of a tank usually and plus there probably 50 miles in the reserve so all around the same numbers!

Why don't you ever fill it up all the way??? Sounds odd to me...
